Luxor Nile Sunset Felucca Sail: Private Boat, Banana Island

‹
Luxor Nile Sunset Felucca Sail: Private Boat, Banana Island★★★★★★★★★★ 4.52 (21)3hA private felucca sail on the Nile at sunset in Luxor, where you board a traditional wooden sailboat, drift past local life along the riverbanks, stop at Banana Island for tea and fresh bananas, and watch the sun set over the West Bank. Hotel pickup and return, a guide in English or other languages, and all island entry fees are included. The sail lasts about three hours and starts in the late afternoon, timed to the sunset.Is it for me?The sail is a drift, not a hike—you sit on cushions the whole time and step off only briefly at Banana Island, so it suits anyone who wants a full evening on the water without physical strain. The late-afternoon start means you don't lose your morning to the tour, and the fixed pickup time keeps the logistics simple if you're juggling a loose itinerary in Luxor.Free cancellationKids −36%fromUS$ 75View ›
